The And the Hello Buckeye fans and welcome to another episode of the Bucknuts Happy Hour.

I'm Patrick Murphy.

I will be taking through a little bit of a different show today, which we'll get to in a second but first

the most important thing this week's beer drinking a labat blue light while we run

through this show I would like to say that it has to do with my Columbus

crew getting a win in Canada last night but this just happened to be a beer

that was in the refrigerator. Easy to drink while we talk a little buck guys today.

I'm going to be joined today and I'm going to start this as part of a little series I want to do here during the

off season by Bill Curlic, Bucknuts recruiting expert.

And we're going to talk not necessarily about Ohio State Football Recruiting, but we're

going to talk about Bill and give you guys a chance to get to know him a little bit.

If you have any questions for Bill about his life, about his time as a recruiter,

or covering recruiting, anything like that. if you're watching this live feel free to throw those in the question or in the comments

We have some questions already that were posted on the Bucknuts message board so we'll get to some of those as we go but let's get to it

let's bring in Bill here Bill how you doing doing well and this is kind of a

scary thought as I said, getting to know me.

It's dangerous waters we're drifting off into here.

No, no, no.

If you are not familiar, if you're not someone who pays attention to recruiting,

Bill, how many years have you been covering Ohio State recruiting?

Well, I just got a haircut to get rid of some of that gray stuff, so I can say less.

But in actuality, I believe this is year number 37.
